The Frustration and Struggle with #MaleToo
#MaleToo is a film about the sexual assault against male models in the modeling industry. When I decided to create this film, the one thing that almost stopped me was my previous experience of producing zoom projects. I have produced one short film, a mini series, and a play reading via zoom, and I have had the same experiences with all of them and that is casting. With all three projects and #MaleToo I have had 3-4 times the people submit and still had issues casting. From people dropping out, to people "ghosting me," to people not returning emails, casting has been the must frustrating part of all of my zoom projects. I am sharing this because, when/if you see the film you will see me in it. I was NOT supposed to be in this film according to my plans. I had about 5-7 actors apply for Robbie using backstage.com and craigslist. Only one was a chance, the thing about him was he kept cancelling the zoom due to life's ups and downs. The rest, I am assuming got nervous about
